Best Album of...
JoyMonkey:
The Prodigy - Music For the Jilted Generation
If I had to pick a Nirvana album it would be Bleach.
mr.Curmudgeon:
Best of the 90's:
Radiohead - OK Computer
Sonic Youth - Goo
Beck - Mutations
Pixies - Trompe le Monde/Bossanova
Nirvana - Nevermind
Janes Addiction - Ritual de lo Habitual
Prodigy - Music For The Jilted Generation (Agreed, JoyMonkey!!)
Melvins - Stonerwitch and/or Bullhead
Social Distortion - Somewhere Between Heaven and Hell
NIN - Pretty Hate Machine (released in '89)
I could *never* pick just one album....but if I had to, I'd pick Nevermind. Bleach is one of my favorites, but Nevermind broke the mold. Not only did it change the way I thought about life/music, it changed the entire landscape of Rock for everyone in America. No doubt in my mind that Nirvana's influence destroyed the lame hairbands (at least for a while), while renewing the awe and respect one should have for the old dinosaurs like Sabbath, Beatles, et al..

I can't stand Mutations! I bought it as soon as it hit the shelves, thinking that the instant beauty of Odelay would be rejuvenated once again. Instead I found it painfully boring. I think I only listened to it once. Maybe just because is was the exact opposite of what I was hoping for. I saw Beck a year later and was delighted that he wasn't carrying any Mutations material in his live set.
Edit Pixies definitely gets monkeythumbs up.
